Pantoliano was born in Hoboken, New Jersey, to first-generation Italian American parents Mary, a bookie and seamstress, and Dominic Pantoliano, a hearse driver and factory foreman. He attended HB Studio and lives in Wilton, Connecticut with his wife, Nancy Sheppard, and their four children. Joe suffers from mental illness and has recently started devoting his celebrity to brining awareness to mental illness.
Pantoliano played the character Cypher in The Matrix, the character of Ralph Cifaretto in the HBO show The Sopranos for which he won an Emmy, and "Guido the Killer Pimp" in Risky Business, for which he first grew to fame. Pantoliano is also known for his role as "Eddie Moscone", the bail bondsman, in the Robert De Niro comedy Midnight Run and a police officer of dubious credentials named John Edward "Teddy" Gammel in Memento.
